Subject:-  War stories

Dear Mr Ted A Morrison (Jr) 

It is now some near 5/7 years since last visited your website - it is great and loaded with ideas to challenge even Robinson Crusoe and there was indeed one on Astove Island - (please refer to police /court case Mr  Veevers-Carter he died in the dentist Chair in Kenya) Since the world have changed a very great deal.

First noted your website in 2006/7 was researching on Illois, Diego Garcia issues then PM Tony Blair government, the media for and against the return - resettlement.

Given the facts that a very great deal of information is available on the Illois, Chagossain and BIOT believe we/I can share some of our issues with your Government, Ministers and others Officials. ( Please note there existed a USAF Tracking station facility on Mahe at La Miser, the many serving officers, those who married into Seychellois Families and indeed our/my own family - today children and grand children in the USA or abroad - the relationship)

We/I have several social media, Blogs, Forum and website where we have addressed some of the issues and for somebody like you with limited time will not send you links and ask to read, instead a brief recap.

Grand parents came to Seychelles, Mauritius Reunion and Madagascar 150 years ago from France - the EDMOND, the DIDON/DAIDON, the Larfortune and others, Mothers side the Louange, Brown and Chinese grandfather - father, had fled the great revolution of China.

The Fief of the Family is Anse aux Pins, Capuchine, Point larue, Cascade,  Point aux Sel,  St Louis and Bel air. The Didon were Planters and the Edmond were Master Carpenter - Marin/Boat builders by Trade/Profession from France.

Anse aux Pins, Capuchine, Cascade and Point Larue had always be a strong/ important area for Agriculture workers for the Islands. Because is was an Important Agriculture region - everybody knew who everybody was and their respective Family history. Hence from infant grew up with the contract agriculture workers for those Islands - if they did not get jobs/work our families would provided work and they spent a good deal of their time with us. They became our minders and took care of us when growing up and a children.

When my father joined the British Army - Engineers was left in the care of one of those Families/ Gros Louis had also been in the Army.

From a scientific prospective the male and Female of Agriculture workers Family from Capuchine and Anse aux Pins were very well build and strong - they could carry heavy loads for a very long distance and maintain the physics. They were very good at fighting with their fist and knife or hatchet if excessively provoked. The constant fight with broke out.

The Family had Fishing boats three sizes with we contracted, including ex Island workers, we also manufactured tobacco products and sniff, Toddy and as children our respective duty to help and sell or serve. Many of the customers were ex Island workers, they knew all those Islands and the stories they used to relate. Indeed personalities like Mr Moulinier, other big, Island owners, the Hodoul, the Cauvin, the Temoolghi, Harry Savy, the Beaufond, the Delhomme, knew my Grand parents reasonably well and we as children.

Part of the current Catholic church and Cemetery land belong to the relatives.

When the older parents started leaving us - these people automatically slotted us into our shoe positions - as would be young Master and Miss. That was the Tradition from there on your respective connections and relation would be build upon. To certain extent what became of you.

Life as we would have - later working at the Port, Custom clearence  and own business - a large majority of those workings at the Dock were ex Island workers and related to the Illois - the Trade Union Stevedore. They had know us as children and the Family connections - the importance and relevancy.

All three, of my Grand mother children decided to look for work in then East Africa, early 1950's - Tanganyika/Kenya, Zanzibar and Uganda, the Colonial East Africa and the French and many other European communities there. In Uganda - Kilembe Mine one or two individual related to the island community found work/Job.

In Zanzibar, there had been a small community From Sechelles Seychelles - my uncle had worked in the Marin Department. The 60's revolution and independence cry across Africa.

My parents at first had my person educated in the Company Secondary School not bad but judge they needed to make a man out of my person hence sent me/us to a Catholic Boarding School St Michel college in Fort Portal. The Catholic Girls College ran by the Nuns a few kilometers away. The idea was that we would be sent to Bugema College in Kampala it is Seminarian of some sort. Something happened as fate usually do and my Passport had been wrongly stamped by the Immigration officials and was returned to Sechelles Seychelles unable to pursue my higher studies.

By then all hell had broken lose,  the Revolution in Zanzibar had taken place, my two uncles had return home - had/have a young cousin - grew together who worked in the Treasury Building - Licences at the time - on one of his selling sprees asked me to accompany him and was introduced to EJ Stiven ex Zanzibar Colonial Administrator and Attorney General Office. The Earl of Oxford and Asquith who had served in Zanzibar and several others who had fled the Revolution and taken/found refuge in Seychelles - on account of my East Africa, spoke Swahili and reasonably good English East Africa, education and Family connection ask if we would like to help with the Property and the workers again some were ex Islanders was then 12 years old or so required the consent of the parents and relatives - after due check back they gave their permission and he became my/our Guardian - the deal was we would help with the many local issues, including the workers and ex Islanders and in return would be helped with our education, finish it and the time we spent at Seychelles College as an outside Student "O and A level". He had acquired the ex Bungalow/property of Sir Clement Nageon De letempt QC from Kenya - "Mogador".

EJ Stiven, had very many acquaintance from the USAF Tracking Station - we used to go and watch movie there, the Higher officers/Commander. His Rank and respective position in East Africa and Zanzibar. In those day the many news of Revolution and counter Revolution and the USA, Cold War - Communist Era. He had helped draft Kenya constitutions and that of Zanzibar. The usual Colonial workings, the American and the British - as you very rightly publish in your book the British option and policy, the issues of making Zanzibar or one of those Island the Hongkong of East Africa and if that failed British interest East of Suez and the many new Strategies,  including the USA future bases and Tracking station, deployment.

We became well acquainted with the Moulinier Family and other Big Island owners, the political events in Seychelles later the Todd first Governor of BIOT based in Seychelles, beside all the leading political acquaintance and police officials Intelligence Service and Colonial officials- as a matter of interest several years later we had got married and had a relation ship with a young Austrian workings as Deputy manager of Pirate Arms Hotel - the Todd's saw to it that she got kicked out of the island/expelled.

There had been a very serious endeavor to change Seychelles like Rhodesia and those USAF officials involved and EJ Stiven by then Judge/Acting chief Justice role - given his in depth knowledge of the East Africa debacle and Zanzibar revolution the many untold issues and the whys to avert a Communist take over of Sechelles Seychelles. They got cold feet/chicken out over recognition by France, the UN and what ensued.

In August 1976, decided to leave everything and go in exile with my then Austrian wife and son to Austria - we had wanted to go to Lebanon - the war there. Had warned then President Mancham within maximum one year there would be a coup d'etat,   he did not appreciate one bit - based upon what we knew - very confidential issues.

In Vienna/Austria had wanted to go into the Tourist industry our own business - eventually become a Dentist. Instead decided to go into marketing/management/Finance.

From Salzburg and later Vienna,  the many we had encountered who asked what we were doing in Austria after the coup d'etat and the utter mess which ensued. The USA special office in Vienna who knew/aware of my person, the French embassy and other the Russian, Chinese, Libyan, Italian.

By then you were on Diego Garcia - the mess was terrible and then South African, Israeli Embassy in Vienna - in those days if you talked you really had you head removed from your shoulder. With the knowledge and respective connection we approached then UNIDO/World Bank and IMF hwy they could not do anything to help - the explanation we got. That was when with the help of some Officers we decided t do the Research - titled Indian ocean Industrial Investment and Promotion Center - then USA, USSR, Warsaw Pact, COMECON Cold War. We had been told bluntly the USA, Britain France would never allow anybody to set up a body like the CARICOM, in the Indian Ocean, if they did not give their blessings. We knew what we knew and they did not. That Research became the foundation of COI - we did not just research, we had the capacity at many level to help and drive issues which saw/helped implementation and the Secretariat in Mauritius. the deal we would be given a position in New York, this required Seychelles Communist/One party System approval and they insisted we come and work for one year with them - did not, was offered a consolation post in Africa field job - declined because of the Family. Having circulated the contents of our research to the many high authorities and what ensued,  they stole the contents of that Research and set up the COI on it.  Given our colonial education -E J Stiven, we had been very familiar with their process and practice. That was then those who ask that we take a different approach we help change the government - the long and messy story including you good people on Diego Garcia at the time - those high Officials in the USA. Things blew and flew everywhere. That was when we landed in London 1981 to seek exile status. .

One of the first thing we did was set our priorities in any eventual government - Seychelles and the IndianOcen would/should not be align with the USA, the USSR, China, Britain or France but the Europe emerging power and structure.

We also pursued a very different approach the vast majority were of the view we would be returning anytime with military options. My view we would be in Britain /Europe for a very long time and the need to establish very long Term infrastructure - which we did.

This is the reason we have decided to share our story - how many recall the Vietnam boat people, Lady Tacther position,  the Sri Lanka exile and many others - the prison Boat in Britain 1981 to 1984. Our exile had been getting very desperate and the leadership had been asking for escalation/getting,  the US involved and creating and incident on Diego Garcia. They lacked the cash - the Technicians were there it would have been very messy.

I/my person came forward with an alternative option - having had very important contacts and influence in the UN and across Europe and then USA, that we used one of the Island to set up an International Refugee Colony under the banner of the UN and supported by the Nations - then lady Thatcher was thinking, interested, his Ministers and the Establishment Illuminati and Masonic and Bankers, military. Among the argument to really create a thorn in the flesh of Seychelles government and then OAU and USSR, China, Communist system in the Indian ocean. The budget was set at £150 millions and Britain would have found long term solution, incorporate the old Strategy of East of Suez in a more modern and acceptable Framework and for the issues and the exile, the Vietnam boat people the Sri lanka and the Seychelles, many others. We had been privy to a great deal of information and knew the working of the Colonial system and Westminster, those who were retired and lived in London and elsewhere, supporting and advising us - the US Embassy in London knew about the issues and those form the White House then. Yet what have been written - those entities in Mauritius then and France then Mitterrand government, Intelligence, the Russian and Chinese and others - the Media.

In then Seychelles we had know and know the Diego Garcia debacle, later in Europe our work and researched.

In 1965 the leader of the Opposition was assassinated Mr Gerrard Hoareau SNM/MPR, we had shared the issues of the Military escalation on Diego Garcia to get the USA to act in Seychelles and his was not game the South Africa, the Israeli and others. A group asked/requested we take this responsibility - over the years what we have written - instead wrote that SIROP program, among the these, the WWW debacle, the many impacting issue on BIOT/Diego Garcia, the collapse of the COMECON, the USSR, Warsaw Pact and near NATO - had we pressed NATO would have been history. That SIROP program was involved in the Nuclear disarmament of USSR and the USA, beside project like Star wars.

We had set up what is Term as a field Masonic Lodge for that SIROP program.

Most interesting is the Gulf War equation - the invention to start the Gulf War and we were importantly involved - hence because we kept leaking so call and supposed inside information my person was targeted to be interrogated on Diego Garcia by the Blair government and much worse executed. We were involved in the initial issues of the/Guantanamo Bay Prison. Countless issue relating to Afghanistan, Somalia/and the Pirate debacles.

In events of 1991, the announcement of multiparty return - those form the USA who judge we were to unruly, would not toe the line and to dangerous to allow to lead a country like Seychelles left in exile in Britain. After all we had challenge the might Resources of the USA and NATO, they had wanted a military option for Seychelles and we had put forward that SIROP program.

Over the past 35 years have had in depth involvements with the BIOT - Diego Garcia issues respecptive British governments, those in Mauritius and the Illois in /Seychelles and Britain.

Finally - there exist an official, recognized institutions for setting a government if/in the events after long battle to find a solution with one own country - for three years have been thinking of this option for Sechelles Seychelles 25,000 exile/refugees around the world.

The Provisional Peoples' Democratic Republic of Diego Garcia Portal 

Comment - After the serious ban/suspension against this webs project lasting over one year. Thank all those involved in the PPDRDG project/portal - in former East, Central Africa, Abyssinia, North Africa, South Africa, Rhodesia, Zambia - individuals like your personalities and their contributions to some of the vast complexities and those who wish that such issues are not told safe their version. The need to state we took three days. 

There are large volumes of great stories from those places and involving the people of Sechelles Seychelles past and the region. Thank you for giving us the strength to have helped Webs to resolve the issues which had been going on for over one year.

The point being when we from Seychelles try/endeavor to address anything about our past how we get treated and the disdain. Yet when others do this how it is accepted and praised.

An excellent example being our exile/refugee struggle those 21,000 - 25,000 the terrible and none existence media coverage and documentation in comparison to the Illois very dreadful history/fate.

We trust because of this brief story our project will not be permanently destroyed by those who judge only their view matters.

Comment - 21/3/2015 

Independence and post-colonial Mauritius 1968-1982

We used to listen to some very macabre humorous rancontage of those very senior to us in Seychelles - this development is really wired - PM Tony Blair personally wanted to send us/my person to the USA for persistently mentioning this topic among others and those from the USA "East of Suez" British and USA policy back in the 50's and this morning the Mauritian news paper publish contents of this unique Strategy and those involved. President J A Michel, President FA Rene and first president JR Mancham you owe my/or person a public apology and my children. Those around lady Tacther and her Cabinet who knew the cack/super manure. This included to President Kassam Uteem , Dr Navin Ramgolam and current PM Jugnauth. You in particular PM Tony Blair - we just trust those many Arabs and Asian parties get to see read - including Mr Imran Khan and Jemaima - those who may have told her your good fiend is bonker. This included President Bill Clinton and Mrs Hillary Clinton and former president Bush Junior. At least president Obama and First lady Obama gave us the befit of the doubt. The many royal and those form France and then President F Mitterrand and the Grand L'Orient de France and the sister Lodge questioned my/our source. What about the many high officials of then Europe 1987, the many Heads of State of Europe, those from the UN and particularly those from NATO and the International Court of Justice. To all my children go in the gardens any where get all the worms, rats tails, snails, flour, oil and eggs and bake a very crazy cake. The article in question - paragraph in the context of the Cold War - please read. Trust those who have the proper marble will come forward with some "proper manure" Lady Thatcher would have a super laughter where ever she is.
